Sentences in Indonesian Killings Draw Criticism
By ERIC BELLMAN
JAKARTA—Twelve members of a mob that killed three adherents of a
minority Muslim sect in Indonesia were sentenced to three to five
months in prison on Thursday, in relatively light sentences that
critics said demonstrated growing intolerance in the country.
In the attack in February, a crowd of around 1,500 people descended
upon members of the Ahmadiyah sect with machetes and rocks to try to
stop them from worshiping. The mob beat three men to death and injured
six others before setting cars and houses on fire.
Graphic video of the attacks, posted on the Internet, triggered a
global outcry. One episode, in video admitted as evidence in the
trial, showed the alleged ringleader smashing the skull of an already
unconcious or dead victim with a rock.
Human-rights advocates said government prosecutors failed to pursue
the case aggressively. Prosecutors asked only for seven-month
sentences because they said Ahmadiyah members had helped provoke the
attack. The local court found the 12 people guilty on destruction of
property and weapons possession and other charges. None were charged
with murder or manslaughter.
The U.S., the European Union and others criticized the sentences,
saying they weren't heavy enough.
"We are disappointed by the disproportionately light sentences handed
down on July 28," the U.S. Embassy in Jakarta said in a statement on
its website. "The United States encourages Indonesia to defend its
tradition of tolerance for all religions."
President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono has sought to promote the country,
Southeast Asia's largest economy, as one of the world's most promising
and stable emerging markets.
Human-rights groups and political analysts said the sentences
reflected a reluctance by Mr. Yudhoyono to deal with the growing
influence of radical Islamic groups because of their political clout.
"The sentences are far too light for the crimes recorded on video,"
said Kevin O'Rourke, a Jakarta-based political analyst. "The
president's lenience will exacerbate unease among minorities and
probably also damage his standing with the moderate mainstream
majority."
Mr. Yudhoyono had nothing to do with the court's decision, said his
spokesman, Teuku Faiza. "We cannot intervene in court decisions," he
said. "We must respect the supremacy of law. The government has no
capacity to comment on judicial decisions."
The Ahmadiyah sect, which has around 200,000 members in Indonesia, was
founded in 1889 by Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, who followers consider the
final prophet. It has long been considered heretical by many Muslims
in Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and elsewhere, who say there can
be no prophet after Muhammad.
A 2008 decree in Indonesia blocked the sect from preaching in public
and converting others, but didn't ban the group outright. Human-rights
groups said the decree helped trigger a surge in violence against the
minority, as well as a string of new local-government restrictions on
them.
There has been recent evidence of increasing intolerance of Christians
in Indonesia as well, with some Christian groups attacked and denied
permission to build new churches. Close to 85% of Indonesia's 240
million citizens are Muslim, making it the largest Muslim-majority
country in the world.
There were 286 attacks against Christians, members of the Ahmadiyah
sect and other religious minorities last year, according to Setara
Institute, a Jakarta human-rights organization, an increase of more
than 50% from three years earlier.
"Indonesia has no legal protection for minorities," said Hendardi,
executive director of Setara Institute. "The message of the sentences
is clear: You can get away with murder, torture, and committing
violence when you are part of a larger group."
Critics say local courts have taken a soft stance on Islamic
hard-liners but have been heavy-handed when it comes to those who
break laws created to protect the country's Islamic values.
Earlier this year, a pop star, Nazril "Ariel" Irham, was sentenced to
3½ years in jail for making sex tapes after the tapes were leaked onto
the Internet, triggering a public debate about morality in Indonesia.
In February, a 58-year-old Christian, Antonius Richmond Bawengan, was
sentenced to five years in prison for handing out leaflets and books
that according to the court ruling "spread hatred about Islam." The
verdict was followed by rioting by Islamic hard-liners, who burned
churches near the court in central Java. Some wanted the death penalty
for Mr. Bawengan.
While the Southeast Asian nation has long been considered moderate and
secular, analysts have argued that a small but influential hard-line
minority is increasingly seeking to impose its will on the government
and police.
Conservative groups might be emboldened, these analysts say, because
President Yudhoyono—who depends on the support of some Islamist
parties to stay in power—doesn't want to upset voters who sympathize
with the conservative Muslim groups' aims.
"Religious freedom is seriously under threat in Indonesia," because
the country's leaders aren't trying to protect minorities, said
Andreas Harsono, Indonesian consultant for Human Rights Watch. "They
don't want to be branded as anti-Islam because they might lose votes."
